What else can I help you with?
Which of the following is a characteristic of nonmetals?
- lower density- lower hardness- lower melting point- lower boiling point- some nonmetals are gaseous or liquidsetc.
Could you predict that bromine would be a poor conductor of electricity based on the fact that it is a nonmetal in the halogen family?
Yes, bromine would be a poor conductor of electricity. Nonmetals, especially those in the halogen family, tend to be poor conductors of electricity because they have high ionization energies and do not readily lose electrons to form ions for conducting electricity.
Is it true that nonmetals are good conductors of heat and electricity?
No, nonmetals are generally poor conductors of heat and electricity. This is because they do not have freely moving electrons that can carry the heat or electric charge effectively. Metals, on the other hand, are good conductors due to the presence of delocalized electrons.
Is a metal and nonmetals are both good conductors?
Metals are generally good conductors of electricity, as they have free-moving electrons that can carry electric current. Nonmetals, on the other hand, are poor conductors of electricity, as they lack free-moving electrons to conduct electricity effectively.
Which metal is the poorest conductor of heat?
Most of the metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. Exception to this rule is silver and copper. Spoons made out of silver and copper pans used in cooking does not conduct heat easily.
Are poor conductors of heat poor conductors of electricity?
Yes.
Are coins good or poor conductors of electricity?
Coins are made of metal and metals are good conductors of electricity.
Is a poor conductors of electricity and heat?
yes
What are materials that are poor conductors of electricity called?
They are insulators.
What material does not allow light to pass through is a good conductor of heat but not a good conductor of electricity?
Non metals are poor conductors of heat and are not conductors of electricity , except for carbon , which is can conduct a little bit of electricity. Non metals are poor conductors of heat and are not conductors of electricity , except for carbon , which is can conduct a little bit of electricity.
Which of the following is a characteristic of nonmetals?
- lower density- lower hardness- lower melting point- lower boiling point- some nonmetals are gaseous or liquidsetc.
Are the halogens good conductors of electricity?
No, halogens are poor conductors of electricity. They are nonmetals and have high electronegativity, meaning they do not easily lose electrons to conduct electricity.
Which property is associated with metals dull shiny brittle or poor conductor of electricity?
Metals are associated with being shiny and good conductors of electricity. They are typically not dull, brittle, or poor conductors of electricity.
Elements that are poor conductors of heat and electricity are?
All Non-Metals are poor conductor of electricity.
Why are alloys poor conductors of electricity?
Alloys are a combination of two or more elements. Not all alloys are poor conductors, in fact many are used specifically as conductors.
What distinguishes nonmetals from metals?
metals are shiny and good conductors of heat and electricity. Nonmetals are dull and poor conductors of heat and electricity.
Are non metals conducters?
they are poor electricity and heat conductors
